The euroLATEX ECO-Standard for latex foam cores has been developed by the European Latex Foam Manufacturers association in close co-operation with one of Europe’s leading and most reputable scientific institutes, i.e. TFI (Deutsches Teppich-Forschungs Institut in Aachen, Germany). The ECO-Standard defines the maximum acceptable limits of substances considered harmful to health that could occur in latex foam cores. This is based upon scientific data and stringent limits from other standards. The substances that are tested for include: Heavy Metals, Nitrosamines, Pesticides, Solvents, VOCs - Volatile Organic Components. CozyPure® natural latex components have achieved the euroLatex ECO-Standard certification for our organic mattress collection.

The "LGA Tested" certificate confirms that a product was tested according to selected criteria (performance characteristics, safety characteristics, statutory requirements and other individual requirements) and also meets the currently accepted technical standards. Manufacturers who wish to obtain the product certificate "LGA tested" must have their product(s) assessed within the scope of a type test, according to the above-mentioned criteria. Annual factory and product inspections must carried out to maintain the validity of the certificate. An LGA-tested certificate assures the consumer that both high-quality and safety standards have been acquired for the product. CozyPure® natural latex components have been awarded the LGA-Tested certificate for our organic mattress collection. |

Skal surveys the organic production by means of inspection and certification. Inspections consist of visits to farms, processing and importing units, but also examination of soil, crop or tissue samples and administrative assessments.
When the production process fully meets the requirements, certification can take place. In that case Skal issues a certificate as document of support. In most cases the producer is also allowed by Skal to use the EKO Quality symbol on the products that originate from the production process certified by Skal. The consumer knows and recognises this symbol of certified organic production. CozyPure® organic mattresses utilizes skal-certified organic cotton ticking in our organic mattress collection. |

Our CozyPure® organic mattress and bedding collection is made in Norfolk, Virginia, USA. We opt first to source our materials domestically, however there are times when this is impossible (example: natural latex comes from rubber tree plantations from other countries). In addition, if we find organic fabric that is milled in Germany to be of a higher quality, our selection is based on the criteria to produce the best product for our customers. We stock all raw materials on-site and manufacture the finished goods right here in Virginia-USA. Our organic matresses are made-to-order and ship within five days. Our organic bedding accessories usually ship within one to seven days, depending on availability of the item and our production schedule. |
